Great purchase. I bought this before I received my new phone and it came out of the box and went straight in. It's not as bulky as people make it seem. It's about the same size as a standard case. I upgraded from a Galaxy S7 so obviously the phone is much larger and I didn't notice a difference in case thickness. Regardless, since I purchased it less than a month ago, I have dropped it once on pavement. Getting out of my car my phone fell out of my pocket and onto pavement in a parking lot. The corner was scuffed, but my phone was fine! When I rubbed the scuff to see if the case was scratched or not, the scuff came off too! All is well. Buy this case.
I've had my Galaxy S21 Ultra in this case going on 3 weeks now and I feel confident in the level of protection it provides. I've dropped it twice - once from the couch to hardwood and once from my lap sitting in my truck to the concrete outside. Normally I would cringe, especially from the latter. I was quickly reminded why I've used Otterbox over the years aside from my last phone (which was a costly mistake). I cannot recommend this enough. If you want peace of mind for such an expensive investment, there's no better choice. Fits perfectly, protects fantastically.
Had it a few weeks, works well. Previous Otterbox was a more robust model with flexible material on outside. It stretched out over the 3 years I had it. This has flexible on the inside with hard case on outside. Glad it didn't come with the clip. Just wish there were more colors. Women are Commuters also and a deep wine or other feminine color besides blue and black would be better.
I have a galaxy s21 ultra and I bought the commuter case for it, it's a great case but I dropped my phone once and it cracked the back plastic and the upper right hand corner where the power button and volume buttons are located, it started to come apart. The plastic part is slowly outstretching and it's annoying .
I've always purchased Otterbox phone cases and have been happy with them - they've usually been rock solid. However, this case wasn't designed as well as previous ones. Basically, the hard "shell" part of the case doesn't wrap around the top, right corner of the inner, silicone "sleeve". Given that the sleeve is slightly too big towards the top, it curves out and away from the phone, leaving a gap for dust to get in (see photos). It also is just annoying to always have this bubble when holding the case. The case is not bad otherwise - this issue kinda ruined it for me though. Would be happy to update this review if Otterbox is able to help with this issue.
Seems to be of quality construction - but the engineering of the case is flawed because after a few months of use the right top of the case loses its shape to the point that I now find that the volume buttons on the case are no longer aligned with the phone's volume buttons. Otterbox produces quality products and it's disappointing that they let this design go into production.
I've used Otterbox for well over a decade for all of my families devices. I personally have always stuck with the Commuter model. I purchased one for my S21 Ultra 5G which at first was perfect. Then within about half a year it ended up getting way to stretched out. I have had this happen in the past but not as bad. I figured it was a fluke and bought a 2nd one. Same thing! Within less than half a year it has stretched out sooo bad that I can't even push my volume and power buttons properly. I hate to say it but I think it's time to switch brands. I'm not paying top dollar for a product that goes to junk and forces me to buy another in such a short time. These aren't meant to be purchased as a consumeable!
As noted in other reviews for other phones, the Commuter series degrades in the upper left corner extending down below the power button. The result is that the rubber surrounding the phone begins to pull away and arch about an 1/8" out from the phone and can be easily expanded further by simply sliding your finger up the inner slide on the glass. This degradation also occurs on the left side, but does not bow out as much. There are two major issues with this: (1) The volume buttons become very difficult to press. You end up having to wiggle it slightly to get the rubber to seat on the button. (2) If you drop your phone in this condition and you are unlucky enough to have it land on that corner, it will crack the screen. Happened to me and now I have a broken screen. I do prefer the the Commuter over the Defender and have been using the Commuters since I had a Samsung S3. The added bulk of the Defender is a turn off, but may be the better route due to this design issue. This issue isn't new; I experienced it with my S5, S6, S8, and S10 also. I've attached a picture showing the flaw (and resulting cracked screen :-( ).
My review from last year remains the same for the replacement case. Only this time, the case was never taken off the phone after the initial installation, and still found a way to become deformed. Here's the review from last year: "As noted in other reviews for other phones, the rubber lining of the Commuter series case stretches out in the upper right corner, just above the power button. This leaves a 1/8" gap between the phone and the protective liner. The other corners are also stretched out, but not as bad. I chose this model because I wanted something less bulky than the Defender, but more protection than the Symmetry. This version of the Commuter fails compared to previous models I've used."
This is usually my go to design for the cases of every phone I've had for some years now and they've always been good. Love the way they feel..I noticed by the camera was a lil loose and wondered if it would hold up.. it didn't, it's now really loose at the top right. Just a bit disappointed that it was overlooked when I could sense the problem from my first feel/like.
